Chapter 98: In his arms

Nina was smiling widely after that pure bliss. Theodore laid on his side, resting his head against his elbows, he watched Nina with a smile. 

"Did you have any nightmares?" he asked, his fingers playing with her hair. 

"Yes, it's about Cecilia," Nina answered. "I feel sorry for that girl," 

Theodore held her hand, "It's devastating, I know. The town's people had assured that they would take care of Cecilia's mother," he said.

He's hesitant to open up about what he experienced. 

"Does anything happen on full moon day?" Nina asked to get rid of this uneasiness. 

"I was about to tell you that," he smiled, "There are a lot of things that have happened in the past days," 

Nina turned to him, curiously. 

"Maximus almost  found me," 

"What? How?" Nina blinked. 

"Look at my feet," he twitched his toes, revealing that they were healed to their human form. 

"How did this happen?" she asked.
